Infant formula for newborns. The basics of choosing and the list of the most popular

Feeding a newborn baby is, at first glance, an elementary thing: pour and drink. It's exaggerated a lot, but the point is true. Nature has thought out what and how our children will eat, if not for one "but". What should I do if I have nothing to feed? If there is no milk? There are a lot of reasons for this, starting from the banal inexperience of a young mother, ending with the genetic characteristics of a woman. Progress comes to the rescue. Previously, there were "dairy" mothers, goat's or cow's milk, although to be completely honest, even now there are donor centers where women share their milk with other people's babies, and there are those who feed their babies with diluted cow or goat milk. We will turn our attention to infant formula for newborns, which we will rate in this article. We hope that this will help you sort out the assortment and choose the best for your baby.

First, it is worth recalling that when choosing a diet for a child, it is necessary to consult a doctor. Besides the fact that this person is medically literate and will give clear recommendations on the introduction of mixtures, the experience of a practicing doctor is much more extensive than that of moms who give advice on playgrounds at home.

Just fifteen or twenty years ago, there was not much variety in our country, and the only infant formula on the market was the well-known "Baby". Now the variety just makes your eyes run away. It is impossible to make a clear gradation based on the price or manufacturer. The reason is trivial – individual intolerance. Infant formula for newborns that is completely suitable for one child may be harmful to another.

Every girl should have a good epilator

Many girls who constantly take care of themselves are forced to use a razor. This often causes irritation, and unaesthetic hairs grow into the skin. It's not a pleasant feeling. But to stop removing hair on legs, armpits and in the bikini area is not...

The first gradation that you need to pay attention to is age restrictions. The fact is that at every age a child needs a different combination of proteins-fats-carbohydrates. Therefore, mixtures with the number "1" are ideal for newborns up to six months old, then you need to choose mixtures with the number "2", and from the year you can give mixtures with the number "3". There are exceptions in this gradation, as the manufacturer will undoubtedly inform you on its packaging. Pay attention to this!

Infant formula for newborns can be fermented milk, that is, with the addition of bacteria. Experts do not recommend feeding the child with them all the time, they are advised to be administered in certain cases according to the indications and recommendations of a doctor. You can alternate taking regular formula with fermented milk, but with regard to such nutrition, it is advisable to consult a pediatrician.

During manufacture, particularly strict control is carried out, there are standards that all manufacturers are obliged to adhere to. Often, infant formula for newborns of one brand differs from another only in small taste characteristics. Manufacturers offer a huge number of therapeutic mixtures, which are recommended to be administered for disorders of various levels. But this should be done very carefully and only after consulting with a specialist. A special group should include hypoallergenic mixtures in which the protein is practically split.
